> Filenames are expected to be bytestrings. The exception happens in a method to which no fileName is passed as an argument.
parse_leo_file: 'C:\\prog\\tigris-cvs\\leo\\test\\unittest\\chinese?folder\\chinese?test.leo' (trace of converted fileName) Unexpected exception parsing C:\prog\tigris-cvs\leo\test\unittest\chinese?folder\chinese?test.leo Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\prog\tigris-cvs\leo\src\leoFileCommands.py", line 2162, in parse_leo_file parser.parse(theFile) File "c:\python25\lib\xml\sax\expatreader.py", line 107, in parse xmlreader.IncrementalParser.parse(self, source) File "c:\python25\lib\xml\sax\xmlreader.py", line 119, in parse self.prepareParser(source) File "c:\python25\lib\xml\sax\expatreader.py", line 111, in prepareParser self._parser.SetBase(source.getSystemId()) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u8116' in position 44: ordinal not in range(128) To repeat, theFile is an open file. I believe the actual filename is passed nowhere as an argument to sax in my code. Just to make sure, I converted the filename to ascii in my code, and got (no surprise) exactly the same crash. I suppose a workaround would be to pass a 'file-like-object to sax instead of an open file, so that theFile.getSystemId won't crash. But this looks like a bug to me.
